The pair, who were dressed up as wizards from the Harry Potter books , were forced to 'duel' after they both tried to make money from passengers on a journey through Russia.

Dumbledore, Harry Potter's benevolent headmaster, was attempting to sell air freshener to his amused audience, while Voldemort appeared to be busking for money.

As Dumbledore explains to his passengers about the threat of 'He Who Must Not Be Named' - while still peddling his wares - Voldemort himself appears and challenges the elderly wizard to a duel.

It then becomes clear that the pair are actually working together.

They put on quite the show, as commuters laugh at their antics.

It is not clear whether either of the wizards managed to make any money after their stunt, but viewers were impressed - the video has now clocked up more than 150,000 hits after being uploaded to YouTube.

One viewer wrote: "I would give money without buying anything from them. Bravo."
